Re: All of the sudden we have Loop Protection!

This switch is on one of our sites.
There is nothing 'behind' that switch other than one AP for clients. That AP is in port 4.
The 'looping' port (port 3) goes to a PowerBeam M5400 (bridge) PTP that is connected to a AP (Sector Antenna) on another site. That is how we connect that site to the network.
That sector antenna is connected with yet another switch. That switch is getting internet from a PTP bridge. So the loop on that part could be coming from anywhere in our network if I am not mistaken?
It is a flat network. Never had this problem before. And only this switch is doing it.
We will change the PowerBeam and cable. And if it occurs again we will also replace the switch. After that, I will start searching again.
Thanks for your explanation and time.
